In a world where interiors are constantly evolving, the beauty of vintage design
remains timeless. At Print Sisters, we believe that blending historical artistry with
contemporary aesthetics creates interiors that feel both curated and deeply
personal. Whether you’re drawn to the delicate florals of the Art Nouveau era, the
bold geometrics of the Art Deco movement, or the organic motifs of mid-century
textile design, styling vintage-inspired prints within modern spaces is an art in
itself.
This guide explores how to weave heritage print cushions, wallpaper, and
blankets into your home—room by room.
Living Room: Layers of Pattern & Texture
Your living space is the heart of your home, a place to gather, unwind, and
express your style. Integrating vintage-inspired prints into this space should feel
effortless, creating a balance between characterful pattern and modern simplicity.
Styling with Cushions
Print cushions offer the easiest way to introduce heritage-inspired motifs into a
contemporary setting. If your sofa is neutral, contrast it with bold patterns such as
the flowing Magic Beans print from the 1940s, or a delicate floral-like Tulip Kisses
for a soft, romantic touch. Pair them with solid velvets or linens to ground the
design and avoid overwhelming the space.
Style Tip: Layer different prints in complementary tones—mixing large-scale
motifs with finer details to create visual depth.
Vintage Wallpaper with a Contemporary Twist
For those ready to make a statement, wallpaper is a game-changer. A feature
wall in a print like Carousel Twist (from the Micaela Sharp collaboration) adds
personality to a pared-back space without feeling overpowering. Soft pastels or
muted jewel tones ensure the design remains timeless while adding an
unexpected layer of artistic charm.
Style Tip: Keep furniture sleek and modern to contrast with vintage
wallpaper—think mid-century armchairs, minimalist shelving, or statement
lighting.
Bedroom: A Sanctuary of Softness
The bedroom is where comfort meets beauty, and incorporating vintage prints
should enhance the sense of calm and intimacy.
Drape Your Space in Print Blankets.
A printed blanket effortlessly transforms a space, adding warmth and visual
interest. Our Deco Daisy Blanket, inspired by early 20th-century textile design, is
perfect for draping over a crisp white bedspread or layering with linen sheets for
a relaxed yet elevated look.
Style Tip: If your bedroom palette is neutral, a richly patterned throw can act as
the focal point. For a bolder setting, choose a more subdued, earthy-toned print.
Print as Art: Framed Textile Pieces
For a unique approach to wall decor, framed prints of vintage textiles—like our
Originals Collection—introduce historic charm without feeling dated. These can
be hung as a gallery wall or leaned against a dresser for a relaxed, curated
aesthetic.
Style Tip: Mix old and new—pair a vintage print with modern abstract art for a
layered, collected-over-time feel.
Dining & Kitchen: Elevating Everyday Moments
The dining area is the perfect place to embrace heritage design, turning meals
into artful experiences.
A Statement Wallpaper Backdrop
A subtle, nature-inspired wallpaper like Labyrinth in Oak or Twilight creates an
immersive backdrop for intimate dinners and lively brunches. The intricate, maze-
like pattern of vines and foliage lends a sense of movement and depth, working
beautifully with wooden dining tables, brass accents, and sculptural ceramics.
Vintage-Style Textiles on Seating
Printed cushions on dining chairs or a bench soften the space and add charm. A
fabric lampshade in the Oysters print can tie the space together, offering warm,
ambient lighting that enhances the mood.
Style Tip: Stick to a natural materials palette—wood, stone, and linen—to keep
the balance between vintage charm and modern simplicity.
Curating a Home with Soul
Bringing vintage-inspired prints into a modern interior is about
harmony—allowing historic artistry to breathe within contemporary spaces. At
